Résumé anglais The increasing world integration of national economics has encouraged a major revolution in maritime transportation. One of the central features of this change has been the containerisation of general cargo traffic. This technique has widened the operational field of shipping companies and has considerably modified the traditional organisation of the transport system. The article analyses the role of these companies in the specific context of overseas exports of containers from the region of Rhône-Alpes. The analysis is based on a survey of flows (of seaward bound movements of containers by road and rail) and on the spatial interpretation of an example of a door-to-door shipment from Beaune to Grand Island (U.S.A.).
